Testimonials
I did the 40k with 3 amazing friends in 10hrs 25mins. 3 years ago one of those friends couldn't even walk because she contracted Necrotizing Fasciitis and was fighting for her life. We did it!! Very emotional and sore. Well done everyone.
Thank you to you and your colleagues for the great organisation and support that you gave us walkers on Saturday. It was a good day and very rewarding.
